Our salads deserve the very best in fresh dressings, which is why I’m going to share with you this recipe of refreshingly delicious Red French Dressing.
I have discovered I am one of those persons who does not have a favourite anything. There is so much to choose from in the world. I just can’t pick a favourite. My daughter, a niece, and the oldest granddaughter are the same way. I am in a dilemma when asked for a favourite. I can choose something when given multiple choices, but when asked for the favourite, I just can’t do it.
Refreshing Red French Dressing
Now back to salad dressings. Red French dressing is very difficult, if not impossible, to find in a bottle at the grocery store. However, it is found on every salad bar in the Midwest and available at most restaurants. I found a few recipes for French dressing in a cookbook put together by the Telephone Workers of Minnesota and North Dakota. I found the cookbook about twenty years ago at a flea market. It has lots of regional recipes with the influence of the Swedes and Finns. I ended up combining three different recipes and came up with this wonderful dressing.
After you make a homemade dressing, you will wonder why you buy the stuff in the bottles. I know the bottled stuff is excellent for a crowd and for variety. But do give the homemade dressings a try. It doesn’t take much, and it is very easy.
